Why is Ecclesiasticus shown with the King James Bible?
1 Set not thy heart upon thy goods; and say not, I have enough for my life.
2 Follow not thine own mind and thy strength, to walk in the ways of thy heart:
3 And say not, Who shall controul me for my works? for the Lord will surely revenge thy pride.
4 Say not, I have sinned, and what harm hath happened unto me? for the Lord is longsuffering, he will in no wise let thee go.
5 Concerning propitiation, be not without fear to add sin unto sin:
6 And say not His mercy is great; he will be pacified for the multitude of my sins: for mercy and wrath come from him, and his indignation resteth upon sinners.
7 Make no tarrying to turn to the Lord, and put not off from day to day: for suddenly shall the wrath of the Lord come forth, and in thy security thou shalt be destroyed, and perish in the day of vengeance.
8 Set not thine heart upon goods unjustly gotten, for they shall not profit thee in the day of calamity.
9 Winnow not with every wind, and go not into every way: for so doth the sinner that hath a double tongue.
10 Be stedfast in thy understanding; and let thy word be the same.
11 Be swift to hear; and let thy life be sincere; and with patience give answer.
12 If thou hast understanding, answer thy neighbour; if not, lay thy hand upon thy mouth.
13 Honour and shame is in talk: and the tongue of man is his fall.
14 Be not called a whisperer, and lie not in wait with thy tongue: for a foul shame is upon the thief, and an evil condemnation upon the double tongue.
15 Be not ignorant of any thing in a great matter or a small.
1 Set not thy heart vpon thy goods, and say not, I haue ynough for my life.
2 Folow not thine owne minde, and thy strength, to walke in the wayes of thy heart:
3 And say not, Who shall controll mee for my workes? for the Lord will surely reuenge thy pride.
4 Say not, I haue sinned, and what harme hath happened vnto mee? for the Lord is long suffering, he wil in no wise let thee goe.
5 Concerning propitiation, bee not without feare to adde sinne vnto sinne.
6 And say not, His mercy is great, hee will be pacified for the multitude of my sinnes: for mercy and wrath come from him, and his indignation resteth vpon sinners.
7 Make no tarying to turne to the Lord, and put not off from day to day: for suddenly shal the wrath of the Lord come foorth, and in thy securitie thou shalt be destroyed, and perish in the day of vengeance.
8 Set not thy heart vpon goods vniustly gotten: for they shall not profit thee in the day of calamitie.

10 Be stedfast in thy vnderstanding, and let thy word be the same.
11 Be swift to heare, and let thy life be sincere, & with patience giue answere.
12 If thou hast vnderstanding, answer thy neighbour, if not, lay thy hand vpon thy mouth.
13 Honour and shame is in talke; and the tongue of man is his fall.
14 Be not called a whisperer, and lye not in wait with thy tongue: for a foule shame is vpon the thiefe, and an euill condemnation vpon the double tongue.
15 Be not ignorant of any thing, in a great matter or a small.
